History

The area was first settled in the 1930s by Flora Statler, who named it Surprise. Some say she chose the name because she would be surprised if the community ever amounted to much, while others say it was because she was surprised by the lush greenery in the area.

By the 1990s, Surprise began to expand rapidly. Retirement communities like Sun City Grand and subdivisions for families transformed Surprise from a small farming community to a large suburban city. Much of the growth was fueled by affordable housing prices compared to other parts of the Phoenix metro area.
